Even though the name John Cage (1912-1992) means something to most of us, his works are not as well known. Cage's work was so groundbreaking that he changed the face of both modern music and dance. His radical ideas had a decisive effect on the development of art, and his influence is still making its mark to this very day.

Anna-Eva Bergman (1909-1987) is a Norwegian artist of international calibre. She was married to the painter Hans Hartung and both Picasso and Braque belonged to her social circle. During her lifetime, she was more renowned abroad than in Norway. For the first time, Anna-Eva Bergman's little known surrealist works will be presented to the public in a major exhibition.
